The Fastest Of Rides! Watch This Lamborghini Aventador SVJ Set A Nürburgring Lap Record

When it comes to legendary race tracks, there is not a track more famous, and maybe infamous, as the Nürburgring. Today Nürburgring is back in the news as Lamborghini recently broke the Nürburgring Nordschleife lap record, doing so on the 12.8-mile track with their brand new Aventador SVJ. The supercar broke all previous records for a one-lap time, doing so by running a one-lap trial in 6:44.97 seconds, making it the fastest production car to ever do a lap there.

Back in September 2017 a Porsche 911 GT2 RS set the previous record of 6:47.3. The SVJ is a new high-performance version of the Aventador supercar, which was outfitted with camouflage because the model hasn’t actually been revealed to the public yet. Though the SVJ set the record for production cars, it didn’t beat the overall record.

That goes to a Porsche 919 hybrid race car, modified by the brand, which ran a 5:19.55, beating the previous record by 51.58 seconds. That previous record stood for 35 years. Have a look at the video below and check out the lap right now. Stay tuned for more examples of exceptional speed coming soon.
